♡Influenster Rimmel Moisture Renew Voxbox Review♡

Hi all!

Back to share with you a sneak peak at my first impressions of the new & improved Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick! Influenster was so kind to send me this lipstick to try and test out for free, so I'm super excited to share my thoughts with you!

Here is what I got in the mail!


















Super pretty color for spring!!! I have not tried it on me personally, because I have a color similar! But I am going to be giving it to a friend. I do have some good things to say about it though! First thing I noticed was the packaging. I have some of the older Moisture Renew Lipsticks from Rimmel and I love them! The packaging looks a little different but is still the same great sturdy quality! It's also really pretty :)

 The color looks super saturated as well, and very vibrant! And also, the smell is really good! It has a slight fruity scent which is super nice!

 I'm so glad I got the chance to try this out though! I plan on purchasing from the new line and getting some colors I don't already have! I love the old formula and there is no doubt that this isn't just the same amazing quality, but even better!

Thanks again to Influenster for letting me try this new lipstick out!

I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.

♡My Fantasy Hair Review♡

Hey everyone!

So a while ago I posted a "first impressions" blog post on my My Fantasy Hair hair extensions. Well, after having two sets from them for a while, and just purchasing a new set of their extensions which are said to be better quality, I figured I would post my full review on them! (I will also have a video review as well that I will link to this post after it's up!)

So here are my final thoughts about this company and extensions! :)

http://www.myfantasyhair.com

Company Satisfaction/ Customer Service:
-I love their customer service! They are so beyond nice, and really make the effort to do all that they can to help you out. I have emailed them numerous times and have received an email back within 24hrs, unless it's on a weekend. They have also answered any questions I have had, and I have also done the color match with them each time I have ordered and have gotten matched to their color chart.

Hair Extensions:

Quality - These extensions are outstanding quality, in my opinion. I have tried several different brands and I really do love their quality and keep going back to them. The reason I have so many sets, is because I change my hair color so often, and although they can be dyed, I like having several different sets on hand just in case I change my mind.
I have dyed them and cut them before, and it has not changed the softness of the hair. I do make sure to deep condition really well though.
The hair is very thick, doesn't shed much, stays soft, the wefts are really sturdy, and the clips are very nice as well; I don't have any issues with them no staying clipped or having issues clipping. (I do tease my roots though where I clip them in just to be on the safe side)


Variety - These extensions come in many different shades and lengths, as well as thicknesses. They have 12 different colors and 5 different choices of length.
The lengths they have are:
14"- 150g
18"- 160g
20"- 180g
24"- 190g
26"- 210g

I think they have the best selection when it comes to length as you can go shorter if you have shorter hair, or you can choose a really long set if you love really glamorous hair!

Performance - Now, you might be thinking, "performance?" Yes. Think about it; you don't want to be wearing extensions on an every day basis or or a long day out and have to worry about them. These, I don't worry about at all. I wear them every single day, and they hold up through wind, rain, just about anything (although I don't swim or shower or sleep with them in lol) but they don't slip or slide around, they stay put, and they may get somewhat tangled but a quick brushing fixes that!


Final Thoughts 
I am super happy with every set I have purchased! My two older sets are still really soft and wearable and I can still go back to them if I want to add in different colors, or if I decide to change up my hair color again. My newest set that just arrived is super soft, even softer than my first two and just the same great quality :)

Pictures
So here are some pictures of my new set + my other sets that I have!


Here is my set in #1 Jet Black 18" 160g






















Here is my set in #613 Bleach Blonde (toned with purple shampoo to make them white) 14" 150g






















Here is my current hair color: I'm wearing the bleach blonde set dyed a dark golden blonde

















And here is the newest set I purchased! :) The hair is even softer than my other sets, and I love it!! I do have to dye them just a shade to match my current hair exactly, because in natural light they are a bit lighter. I will also have to cut some layers in, as I do with all of my sets. :) But I'm definitely looking forward to wearing these!!
I got them in the shade #18 Butterscotch and 14" 150g. :)






















Thanks for reading, and I will post the link to my video review once it's up!! :)

Blog Update!

One of these days when I have the extra time and motivation, I plan to re-vamp my blog and ACTUALLY blog. lol But for now, I wanted to make just a quick post!

I feel that instead of trying to keep up with my blog and attach posts correlating with every single video I make on my channel, I'm going to focus more (for now) on reviews! I don't post them often, but when I do you best believe that it's something I'm really excited about! :)

So to keep me still in the blog scene, but not too in touch as I don't have the time, I will post here and there, and I may have a review coming up sometime within the next month or so! So stay tuned and thanks for reading!

If you love fashion; clothing, shoes, and accessories, you HAVE to check out this amazing site! They have really cute stuff for affordable prices! I'm a college student so I don't have a ton of money to spend on clothing, so I normally shop at places like Forever21, WetSeal, etc. But my favorite way to shop is online. I love this site because they have in fashion items, that are really cute and affordable, so you can have your shopping spree without breaking the bank! :)

I highly suggest checking out their site and I plan on doing a review once my order arrives! I'm loving them though, you can't go wrong!

♡My Fantasy Hair Extensions First Impressions♡

Hey everyone!

I know it's been forever since I've made a post, but I'm back and with a first impressions on a set of hair extensions I purchased from http://www.myfantasyhair.com

Starting off, they offer deluxe hair extensions, and in many lengths and colors. The grams range from 150g to 210g which is insane! The lengths they have also vary between 14" and go all the way to 26"! So they have a ton of options to choose from. They have ranges of blonde, brunette and red extensions, but also have bright colored extensions which is great as well, if you want to add color to your hair, or if you already have bright hair and want extra length/volume!

I purchased the 14" 150g deluxe set of extensions in the color #1 Jet Black.

I will start off with how I feel about the company and my purchase experience. When I had ordered, my extensions were on back order, so I received an email saying that once they arrived, they would ship, approximately 7-10 days. (You can email before a purchase to find out if your extensions are in stock, or on back order, just in case you need them quickly). After 10 days had passed I hadn't received an email, so I emailed the company to find out details on my order. The customer service is by far THE BEST customer service I've had from any company, especially with hair extensions. They emailed back right away and had told me my order had shipped, apologized for the wait, and also said that I would receive a 10% coupon with my next order, and they would give me fast 2-3 day shipping since I had waited and hadn't received an email. My extensions arrived within 2 days, and I also received the coupon! So, as a customer, I am very pleased with how they treated me and how they answered all of my questions super fast.

Now onto the hair extensions! I am loving them so far! Of course, I haven't washed them yet, or worn them more than once, but I can tell you this....the clips are BY FAR the best and most secure clips I have come by on extensions! They are so durable it's insane, and they stay in my hair like no others I have tried! I had purchased extensions in the past and the clips were so flimsy. I contacted that company to see if I could get new clips, just to be sent the same flimsy clips again, so I am SOOO satisfied with the clips on this set of extensions from My Fantasy Hair! The hair itself, is super super soft. Now of course, my hair is no where near as soft as this hair, so I'm going to have to wash it, and get the hair to be a little less soft, so it will blend better with my own hair. Shedding wise, I've only had a tiny bit, and this is to be expected of course, and should stop after I wash them. It's of course nothing noticeable, and it's not like I'm pulling out handfuls of hair when running my fingers through, just a stray hair here and there. The color is a rich rich super dark black, and matches perfectly! (once I touch up my faded hair color lol)

But overall, I am super pleased with the set of hair extensions I purchased and the service I received. :)

I might do a full review and update on this set on my youtube channel, once I have worn the extensions for a couple of months, just to see how they hold up, etc.

So look out for that on my channel! http://www.youtube.com/user/glitterinmyveins7

I highly recommend these extensions and this company for sure! The prices are great, the options are great, and the service is also amazing! Not to mention, the quality is top notch in my opinion.

So if you have any questions, feel free to ask me! You can also tweet me on twitter and I'll be sure to respond! https://twitter.com/#!/heyitssamyrae

Love you all!! xx
